PROCLASSIC, made in different materials and finishes, according to the model, is available in two versions: rounded (PROCLASSIC R) and flat (PROCLASSIC F). The curved section of certain models (PROCLASSIC R) corrects slight unevenness (2 3mm) between two different types of floors. The versatility of the PROCLASSIC line is due to the diversity of the materials used, rendering these profiles fit for use both in civil and public surroundings. They are particularly well-suited for an elevated density of passage: PROCLASSIC R (curved section) 31-41 029; PROCLASSIC F (flat section) 25-742 - 520-525 - 330-535. Materials Anodized aluminum Al-Mg-Si Alloy heat treated to T6 temper (6060 T6) These profiles are made by extrusion and subsequently anodized. They are well-resistant to chemical and atmospheric agents. Wet cement and its derivatives produce alkaline substances that, when left to act on the surface, can corrode metal (formation of aluminum hydroxide). For this reason, the visual surface of the profile must be cleaned thoroughly of cements, adhesives and caulking or stopping material. As a result of wear and treading (when these profiles are used on flooring), anodized surfaces wear down, losing their original finish. Stainless Steel AISI 430 - DIN 1.4016 This type of steel has a moderate resistance to corrosive agents. Recommended for use in internal environments. Polished Brass Alloy CW624N UNI EN 12167 These profiles are made by extrusion and subsequently polished mechanically. The external surface must be protected from scratches and rubbing. They are well-resistant to chemical agents and mechanical stress. On the visible surface, brass is nevertheless subject to the oxidation phenomenon that causes a surface patina. When exposed to strong atmospheric humidity or corrosive agents, brass is subject to an elevated rate of oxidation and can present surface stains and spots. Whenever necessary, the initial natural look can be recovered with abrasives or specific polishing products. General note on metals Aluminium, Brass and Stainless Steel AISI 430 - DIN 1.4016 are not resistant to all chemical compounds and it would thus be necessary to keep them away from particularly aggressive products such as hydrochloric acid (HCl) and phosphoric acid (H3PO4) Products that can be used for cleaning stones, ceramics and gres, namely muriatic acid, ammonia, bleach or sodium hypochlorite damage the surface finish of the metal and may cause intense corrosive reactions. Therefore, it is necessary to always remove, and as fast and gently as possible, residues of cement, adhesives and materials for caulking and stopping from the surface of profiles. Laying Laying instructions using Adhesives Type PP/86 Take the profile out of the packaging. Remove, wherever present, the protection (protective and/or thermo-shrink film) of the product s finish. Measure and cut the profile to the required length with the proper tools. 5.9.01 Profiles for floors of same height Proclassic Proclassic F 1/17
Verifying that the laying area is perfectly clean and then place the profile, now cut to measure, in the correct position, fixing it to the laying surface with the appropriate adhesive (type PP/86). Keep sufficiently even pressure for a few minutes on the entire length of the profile in order to ensure sufficient adhesion to the laying surface. Laying instructions for adhesive profiles Take the profile out of the packaging. Remove, wherever present, the protection (protective and/or thermo-shrink film) of the product s finish. Measure and cut the profile to the required length with the proper tools. Verifying that the laying area is perfectly clean and not crumbly or brittle, remove the protective paper and lay the profile, applying an even pressure to its entire length in order to ensure sufficient adhesion to the laying surface. Laying instructions for hollow profiles or hollow profiles with screws Take the profile out of the packaging. Remove, wherever present, the protection (protective and/or thermo-shrink film) of the profile s finish. Measure and cut the profile to the required length with the proper tools. Place the cut profile into the correct position; with indelible ink, mark the holes to be drilled using the corresponding profile holes. Remove the profile and drill the necessary holes in the floor in the exact positions as marked in the previous step, ensuring the exact measure of the dowels to be used. After verifying that the laying area is perfectly clean, insert the dowels into the holes in the floor; reposition the profile in the correct position and fix it with the adequate screws. Care and maintenance Aluminum These need no particular maintenance and are easily cared for with colorless alcohol diluted in water or with normal detergents, though not acid-based products (e.g. hydrochloric or hydrofluoric acid). For cleaning tasks, a wide array of detergents coming in a variety of commercial brands and of numerous manufacturers are generally used. In general, there are three product types: Alkaline type Neutral type Acid type For cleaning, neutral detergent diluted in water and a rinsing agent of solely water is recommended, using a sponge and/or non-abrasive cloth to prevent scratches and/or damage to the anodization, shine or varnish. During cleaning, the following should be kept in mind: Do not use acid or alkaline detergents, since they can damage aluminum; Do not use abrasive products and/or materials; Do not use organic solvents on varnished surfaces; Do not use detergents with unknown chemical compositions; Do not apply detergents directly to the surface to be cleaned; Surfaces must be relatively cold when cleaning (Max. Temp = 30ºC) and not exposed directly to sunlight; Detergents used for cleaning must be in turn cold (Max. Temp = 30ºC) and spray devices must not be used. In any case, the last phase of cleaning is always an adequate rinsing with water on the part that has been treated, followed immediately by drying with a soft cloth or rag. Maintenance with polishing products or similar is unnecessary. Effect a quick and accurate cleaning of the profile, according to the indications on the product s packaging, in order to prevent possible cement deposits, caulking material or similar products that may end up attacking the surface layers. Stainless Steel The stainless surfaces can be polished with the adequate products, commonly found in stores. Stainless steel is easy to clean and extremely hygienic; its smooth and non-porous surface makes it especially difficult for the adhesion and survival of bacteria and/or other micro-organisms. Some simple guidelines are all that is required to keep steel surfaces perfectly cared for: it suffices to wash with hot water and soap, rinsing abundantly and drying with a soft cloth. If the surface is exposed to atmospheric or aggressive agents, periodic cleaning of the stainless profile is recommended in order to keep the surface unaltered and prevent the onset of corrosion. On brushed finish surfaces, always clean in the direction of the grain and never across it. For scratches, use a detergent/polish suitable for stainless steel and a soft cloth. Under no circumstances should the following be used for cleaning: detergents containing hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid), hydrofluoric acid or bleach; avoid direct contact on the surface of detergents containing chlorine, unless the contact time is brief and followed up by an immediate rinsing with abundant amount of water; detergents in abrasive powder form that could damage the surface finish of the profile. Avoid allowing objects and tools in common steel (e.g. brushes or steel wool normally used to remove residual mortar or similar products) to come into contact with profiles in stainless steel for a prolonged period, otherwise they could transfer ferrous particles (contamination), causing the appearance of rust stains on the surface. Prevent humid pieces of material or sponges to lay for a prolonged period of time in contact with the stainless steel surface in order to prevent unsightly water stains. Brass These need no particular maintenance and are easily cared for with alcohol diluted in water or with normal detergents, though not acid-based products. For cleaning, neutral detergent diluted in water and a rinsing agent of solely water is recommended, using a sponge and/or non-abrasive cloth to prevent scratches and/or damage to the surface. Use non-abrasive sponges or cloths to avoid scratching the surface. For maintenance, a normal commercial polish should be used (type Sidol).
